Book excerpt: What’s the connection between a platter of jumbo shrimp at your local restaurant and murdered fishermen in Honduras, impoverished women in Ecuador, and disastrous hurricanes along America’s Gulf coast? Mangroves. Many people have never heard of these salt-water forests, but for those who depend on their riches, mangroves are indispensable. They are natural storm barriers, home to innumerable exotic creatures—from crabeating vipers to man-eating tigers—and provide food and livelihoods to millions of coastal dwellers. Now they are being destroyed to make way for shrimp farming and other coastal development. For those who stand in the way of these industries, the consequences can be deadly. In Let Them Eat Shrimp, Kennedy Warne takes readers into the muddy battle zone that is the mangrove forest. A tangle of snaking roots and twisted trunks, mangroves are often dismissed as foul wastelands. In fact, they are supermarkets of the sea, providing shellfish, crabs, honey, timber, and charcoal to coastal communities from Florida to South America to New Zealand. Generations have built their lives around mangroves and consider these swamps sacred. To shrimp farmers and land developers, mangroves simply represent a good investment. The tidal land on which they stand often has no title, so with a nod and wink from a compliant official, it can be turned from a public resource to a private possession. The forests are bulldozed, their traditional users dispossessed. The true price of shrimp farming and other coastal development has gone largely unheralded in the U.S. media. A longtime journalist, Warne now captures the insatiability of these industries and the magic of the mangroves. His vivid account will make every reader pause before ordering the shrimp.

This volume covers all major aspects of the economics, trade, and markets for shrimp worldwide, with chapters written by experts from major consuming countries such as the U.S.A. and major providers such as China, Thailand and Brazil.

Download or read book Food Safety in Shrimp Processing written by Laxman Kanduri and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systems of producing food in safer ways, including the use of the hazard analysis critical control point (HACCP) system are now being adopted widely throughout the world. The ever-growing global shrimp and prawn farming and processing industries are now beginning to realise the benefits of using HACCP and other food safety measures. However, until now, there has not been one single book bringing together full details of how to implement these systems, which are now seens as making an extremely important contribution to the safe production and processing of shrimps. The authors of this book, who have a great deal of practical experience working with industry, and teaching food safety issues, have drawn together a wealth of information and guidance for the proper implementation of food safety measures, and the consequent processing of shrimps safely for the expanding market. Included in the book is an introduction to HACCP, how to implement sanitation programs and HACCP plans, and details of sampling procedures and monitoring plans for organoleptic, physical, chemical and microbiological quality. Food Safety in Shrimp Processing is an essential purchase for all those involved in producing and processing shrimps throughout the world. Food scientists, micribiologists and technologists in the seafood processing industry, and government regulatory and public health personnel should have a copy of this book readily at hand. All libraries in universities, colleges and research establishments where food sciences, food technology and aquaculture are studied and taught should have copies of this book on their shelves.
Download or read book Managing the Challenges of WTO Participation written by Peter Gallagher and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-12-15 with total page 682 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 2005 compilation of 45 case studies documents disparate experiences among economies in addressing the challenges of participating in the WTO. It demonstrates that success or failure is strongly influenced by how governments and private sector stakeholders organise themselves at home. The contributors, mainly from developing countries, give examples of participation with lessons for others. They show that when the system is accessed and employed effectively, it can serve the interests of poor and rich countries alike. However, a failure to communicate among interested parties at home often contributes to negative outcomes on the international front. Above all, these case studies demonstrate that the WTO creates a framework within which sovereign decision-making can unleash important opportunities or undermine the potential benefits flowing from a rules-based international environment that promotes open trade.

Download or read book ECONOMICS OF SHRIMP FARMING written by Biswabas Patra and published by New India Publishing Agency. This book was released on 2021-08-14 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In India, shrimp farming has gathered its momentum in the early 1990s, and the country has earned huge foreign exchange by exporting shrimp. It is one of the important sources of income for the rural population, particularly those who live in the coastal region. But, shrimp farming is volatile in nature. It can give a huge profit and at the same time it can also ruin a farmer. Previously, only rich farmers dared to do shrimp farming. But now, allured by profit, marginal and poor farmers also started doing shrimp farming. As this farming requires huge investment, the success rate among the poor farmers is very low. It also has an adverse impact on the environment. The book has eight chapters. The first chapter deals with the introduction, problem, global shrimp production, shrimp production in India, significance, objectives, methodology and limitations of the study. In the second chapter a review of the existing studies on shrimp farming and its impact on economy, society and environment is presented. Socio-economic profile of the shrimp farmers is discussed in the third chapter. The fourth chapter discusses the shrimp farm management and marketing. The fifth chapter analyses the socio-economic impact of shrimp farming. The sixth chapter highlights the environmental problems due to shrimp farming. An evaluation of the existing policies related to shrimp farming is made in the seventh chapter. The last chapter presents the major findings for a sustainable, economically more viable and environment friendly shrimp farming. The book is very useful for the pisciculture students, academicians, policy makers, fish farmers, fish traders & exporters and other stakeholders; and will help shaping public policy for economically viable and environmentally sustainable shrimp farming in the future.
